God Said:

From this moment on, when you are aware that you are worrying, blow yourself a kiss from Me and substitute something else for the worry. Often your worries are imagined. You put yourself in a precarious place. You do realize that you are doing this, don’t you? You bet on worries. You may even feel amiss without something to feel on edge about.

When you recognize that you are worrying, replace your worries with something else for a few moments, if you please.

Run around the block. Drink a glass of water. Wash your face and hands with cooling water and sweet-scented soap. Look at yourself in the mirror, and take a chance on a smile instead of a frown or whatever you do when anxiety takes over.

Yes, smile a big smile at yourself.

Say something nice to yourself.

Kiss the palm of your hand.

Amuse yourself. Make clown faces in the mirror.

Stick out your tongue at yourself. Try to make yourself stop smiling if you can.

Recollect a sweet memory from childhood.

Recollect a sweet recent memory.

If you could travel again to where you once did travel, where would you choose?

If you could go anywhere in the world where you have never been, where might you go?

What was the last time you gave something away to a resale store? What was it?

What could you give away today?

What is a favorite dessert from childhood?

Of a long list of work tasks before you, which might be your favorite choice? Start there.

Do you see now that you are not quite so in the same place as you were before you did one or two of these exercises? Next time, know this ahead of time.

By your own will (and Mine) change your mind.

How do you change your mind, your mood, your focus of worry? You change your mind by getting onto a different subject.

When you are in a frenzy of worry, find a way to change the track you are on.

I have given you a magic potent. Avail yourself of it.

When you draw a dark color, change the color crayons you draw with.

If you want to get into a better mood, get into a better mood, and you will find yourself there. Don’t try to prove to yourself otherwise. Because you may feel miserable, doesn’t mean you have to continue miserable. You have a chance for better.

Even when the worst thing has happened, whatever that might be, be kind to yourself. Open your blinds and let the Sun in. Know you deserve the Sunshine. Put a new spin on your Life into your mind. Open doors for yourself.

Cheer yourself on. Pick yourself up off the floor. No matter what, you have a choice to feel better. Take a chance on feeling better now.

Retrain your mind. There are certain signals now that trigger your mind. Reform your signals. Start all over. Do this any hour of the day or night.

You have been letting something trigger you. You call some days good days. You have the wherewithal to call any day a good day. You can choose the kind of day you will have. You are not helpless.

Now choose choicer choices. You can do it. Anyone can do it.

Now I steer you in worthwhile directions. This isn’t escapism. If to you a little happiness is escapism, go ahead and be an escapist from worry. Happiness does exist. It exists for you. Allow yourself happiness. You are meant for happiness right now.
